Description
A vibrant and flavorful salmon bowl featuring fresh ingredients and a spicy sauce for a delightful meal perfect for any night.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Fresh Salmon (responsibly sourced; can substitute with shrimp or chicken)
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil (for crisping; avoids strong flavors)
- 1 tsp Salt (sea salt is preferable)
- 1 tsp Black Pepper (freshly ground is preferable)
- 1/2 cup Mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
- 1/4 cup Sweet Chili Sauce (adjust based on taste)
- 1 tbsp Sriracha (adjust based on heat preference)
- 1 tbsp Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- 1 tbsp Rice Vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
- 2 cups Cooked Rice (substitute with cauliflower rice for low-carb)
- 1 cup Shredded Carrots
- 1 cup Cucumber
- 1/2 cup Green Onions
- 1/4 cup Cilantro
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and rice vinegar until smooth. Set aside for later.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon with salt and black pepper.
- Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes before gently flipping. Cook until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
- While the salmon cooks, prepare the rice and arrange shredded carrots and cucumber in serving bowls.
- Serve the salmon atop the rice and vegetables, drizzling with the prepared sauce.
